13-Year-Old Boy Starts Business and Generates $100,000

We had a 13-year-old boy from New Jersey who made his first $100,000 before he left the 8th grade after he began manufacturing scooter wheels that don't break. "Most wheels are made in China and cheap," said Nicholas Pinto of Cranford New Jersey. "Mine are manufactured in America so they're top quality," he added.

Pinto said he developed the idea after the wheels on his scooter kept breaking. He wanted to build wheels that lasted.
